[Unattended] windows xp home edition
Hello folks, I have a strange problem during an unattended setup for a Windows XP sp1 oem disc. This is a dutch version of a Home edition disc. If i'm installing it, i believe it is after installing Directx 9c it reboots and after that i have a system that is not unattended anymore. It just stalls after bootup and you can press on the icon to the user it has (just) created. Because this is a Dutch version it is called "Eigenaar" The problem is i have to press a few times onto the user icon because the autolog.pl doesn't fix this.

I have the idea that it bail's out after the 7-zip installation.

Re: [Unattended] Unattended XP Home and Pro
I think that you can try it out(test-case), basically because the volume license key is meant to be for the Pro version and therefore shouldn't work on the Home edition. So what will happen ... the volume key will be tryed and will not be accepted by the installation and then you will still be prompted to enter the Product key for the Home edition.

Well, you can declare a private subnet somewhere and then in your
dhcp-config only broadcast it for your specific subnet declaration
[example]
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
